Joan's in the Park

Outstanding

We went to Joan’s with our dining group, Haute Plates, and left there not only fully sated, but euphoric. From the astounding service (Dan) to the overseeing by Joan herself, and all the prep by Jen for our group, we were already blown away. Then the food arrived. Each bite sent us into reverie. Are they magicians?? Dietary restrictions: I cannot do butter. They were beyond accommodating!

Best of the twin cities

Atmosphere was relaxing. Service was prompt and kind. The food was different if you’re not a fancy eater… but great. Really enjoyed the experience and food. Thanks for the photo, the birthday greeting for my girlfriend and smiles. My girlfriend was very satisfied with our experience and impressed.

Joan is such a delight. We called for a reservation of a whim and she got us in right away. Unfortunately, we had to leave just after ordering drinks. Joan was so understanding. We cannot wait to return to this gem of a place.

This was truly the best meal of my life. My husband and I went for my birthday, and they made it so special with complementary Prosecco, confetti, and a photo to take home. The food and the wine pairings were beyond incredible. If you are looking for, a special meal out, I cannot recommend this restaurant enough. I cannot wait to go back for my birthday next year!

The service was excellent for a birthday meal (don’t hesitate to tell them about a special occasion). The food was good—more elevated comfort flavors than modernist cuisine (though I thought the fish courses were just a bit over). The wine pairing was well chosen and the cocktails excellent. Overall, the experience was top notch for a special occasion dinner. Highly recommended.

Incredible experience! Food was off the charts! Dan is incredible talking through eat course and helping with recommendations.
